Only made 3 passes to dial in the tune, only got 1 video of the last pass, will post time slips tomorrow. Drew from AED drove to get the data logs.
1. 10.60 @ 139 2.16 60ft
2. 10.25 @ 140 1.89 60ft
3. 10.22 @ 139 1.9? 60ft

Not to bad for not launching the car, zero track prep on Wednesdays.

Very nice. Think I put on a few grey hairs waiting for the other guy to stage!

I have a couple of build threads, but basically it has:
R470W manual valve body, locking converter (was a 5spd 6 months ago)
Ford Aluminator short block low compression 8.7.1
Ford Racing Stage II heads
127350 stage II blower cams
Single Turbo
4.30 gears (need a taller tire now)
suspension completely done
bunch of light weight stuff
e85 fuel
15psi
666rwhp 582rwtq

Test and tune Friday, I will be driving then, should make for some funny video's. Probably will be able to hear me screaming with fear as I am going down the track.

Looks good but that gearing with a turbo is going to kill you. You should reach out to Paul (Againstallodds1) on here about setting it up for drag racing. I don't remember if he is back to 3.55 or 3.31 gears in his, but a turbo likes load.

with 3.55, 17" et streets, and 3650 I've pulled 1.49 with my turbo. There is a such thing as being undergeared too. I'm currently undergeared in my Magnum with the 2.66 1st gear.

Looks like a fun ride for sure!

It should be fine, I am running a 28x10.5x15 tire, will be switching to a 29x10.5x15 soon. The taller tire should make up for the gearing.

A lot depends on how the trans is geared, as stated earlier, but 4.30s does seem high. I have 4.10s, 28x10.5x16 with the stock 3650 and I am geared WAY high. I think with a 29" tire and a long first 3.73 would work wonders.

Looks good! First gear is going to be brutally quick if your 4R has the low gear set in it along with the 4.30's even with a 29.5 tire.

Paul is running 28x10.5x15 tires now...he had 3.73's and the car just didn't run well. The 29" tall won't make much of a difference just by itself and as mentioned you should drop down to at least 3.73's. It will help the turbo make boost in first and second.
